SAN DIEGO, CA, October 19, 2010 (Press-News.org) "The economy is bad and surrogacy is expensive, so make sure that you are well informed about ALL of the costs associated with surrogacy," states John Erickson, CEO of Conceptual Options, LLC, The Surrogacy and Egg Donation Center. "Most reputable centers will have a fee breakdown that includes estimates for all costs including the variable ones, YET if it seems like it is too good to be true it probably is."
Below are a few tips to remember when looking into the costs of a surrogacy:
1. Look at the costs objectively, not just at the bottom line number. Do they include all associated fees that you may be responsible for? Ask questions and more questions.
2. If you are working with an agency, does it give you estimates for medical, legal, psychological and any other fees that your surrogate may be entitled to?
3. When considering clinic fees, do they give you an all-inclusive fee with exceptions? If there are exceptions, what are they and why are they exceptions?
4. Surrogacy insurance is complex and can often be overlooked when trying to build your family. Please take the time to ask for evidence of coverage and or buy the correct insurance to reduce your risks.
5. Finally, build a team of experienced professionals that will help guide you through the process. Notice that I said experienced professionals, a nice website does not mean you have you an experienced professional on your team. Do your homework and go visit their office and staff.

Key difference in how TB bacteria degrade doomed proteins
2010-10-18
UPTON, NY — Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory and Stony Brook University have discovered a key difference in the way human cells and Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, which cause TB, deliver unwanted proteins — marked with a "kiss of death" sequence — to their respective cellular recycling factories. This critical difference, described in a paper published online October 17, 2010, in the journal Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, may help scientists design drugs to disable the bacterial system while leaving normal ...
Older women with normal T-scores may not need bone mineral density screening for 10 years
2010-10-18
CHAPEL HILL – Since 2002, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has recommended that women ages 65 and older be routinely screened for osteoporosis and has suggested that a 2-year screening interval might be appropriate. However, what length the screening interval should be is a topic that remains controversial and undecided, with no definitive scientific evidence to provide guidance.
Now a new study led by Margaret L. Gourlay, MD, MPH of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine finds that women aged 67 years and older with normal bone mineral ...
Mice that 'smell' light could help us better understand olfaction
2010-10-18
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Harvard University neurobiologists have created mice that can "smell" light, providing a potent new tool that could help researchers better understand the neural basis of olfaction.
The work, described this week in the journal Nature Neuroscience, has implications for the future study of smell and of complex perception systems that do not lend themselves to easy study with traditional methods.
"It makes intuitive sense to use odors to study smell," says Venkatesh N. Murthy, professor of molecular and cellular biology at Harvard. "However, odors are ...
